The physical stresses placed on a woman’s body from childbirth, among other factors, can sometimes cause painful and complicated medical conditions such as Pelvic Organ Prolapse and Stress Urinary Incontinence. In response to these conditions, doctors have performed transvaginal surgery using surgical mesh products; however the surgery is not without risk for women who undergo it. Now, thousands of women who underwent this surgery are experiencing severe pain as well as bleeding, infections, and other adverse health complications from the surgery.
Many of these women are now suing the manufacturers of the surgical mesh products used in their surgeries for, among other things, the failure to properly warn of the risks associated with use of surgical mesh. If you or a family member has suffered an adverse health condition from a surgical mesh product used, please contact us to discuss your legal rights.
